  1. As long as the Republicans control the House it doesn't matter who the Speaker of the House is. It will still be a circus of fools.

  2. Good for him democrats didn't help him well done 👍

  3. Uncertain as to what the preliminary terms are , but within a number of years , or even months. America will have become the throw away nation of the world.
    Because we're full of expensive garbage nobody wants .

  4. McCarthy's caucus is too short to be hanging.

  5. I love the irony of hearing a Republican complain about the GOP blocking any progress, then criticizing leadership about the lack of progress.

  6. I can't understand how anyone can think or believe that the Republican Party is better for the economy than Democrats. Doesn't anyone remember ANY history?
    Ten of the last 11 recessions began under Republicans. During the seven decades before Trump, real GDP growth averaged just over 2.5 percent under Republicans and a little more than 4.3 percent under Democrats.

    Republicans have also historically presided over huge expansions in the U.S. deficit (tax cuts for the rich), while Democrats (since Bill Clinton’s administration) have overseen dramatic deficit reduction. Ronald Reagan more than doubled the deficit from $70 billion to more than $175 billion. George H.W. Bush nearly doubled that to $290 billion. Clinton ended his administration with a $128.2 billion surplus. George W. Bush inherited that… and left office with a record deficit of more than $1.4 trillion. Obama reduced that by very nearly $1 trillion. Each of Donald Trump’s last two years in office saw federal budgets with deficits of over $3 trillion. In fact, in total, the national debt rose almost $8 trillion during Trump’s time in office.

    Republicans are just plain bad at managing the economy. . For more of the facts search for republicans-are-bad-for-the-economy-heres-why on thedailybeast.

  7. That Man (McCarthy) sold his soul to the Devil (Trump) for absolutely NOTHING

  8. For me Matt Gaetz looks like someone taking cocaine. 🙂

  9. Feel sad for the USA as one learns about and see more and more the behavior of the countries politicians who seem to have little interest in the well being of America. Their jobs and political power is their priority,

  10. Dumb Drump
    Dumb all his co
    Conspirators

  11. Getsz out of Washington
    He’s a traitor to
    America and his
    Party

  12. If the democrats and Biden Don't use this chaos to their advantage and really fight. I don't know. Yay, Medicare negotiate prices, yay, MORE BIDEN. FIGHT LIKE YOU HAVE A PAIR MAN OR FIRMLY GIVE UP!!!

  13. I get that Chuck retired from the show, sad about that but understand.
    But ever since he left, the presentation of the show has gone downhill . Seems like lately the show just is just boring , drawn out and flat. And where's the round table discussions on interesting topics?
    I used to love watching every day, and wish I could still say the same.

  14. This show has fallen down just like the rest of the country.
    I’m a boomer who has paid attention throughout the 60’s and beyond. Pathetic how one man has been able to ruin a democracy in this country.

  15. Come on Jeffrey you need to be the speaker of the house. I know you’ll do a good job.

  16. Going into 2024, usually the party that is united is the party that takes control of government. The House Republican party is in complete chaos. This us crazy. McCarthy is gone and we have a temporary speaker. This is going to be fun.

  17. Grab some popcorn for the next clown show episode, Choosing The Next Speaker…starring the FUBAR-GOP🍿🤡

  18. He sold his soul to the devil to become the house speaker.

  19. A prophet once predicted that,

    "If Trump is the nominee, the Republican Party will get killed, we’ll get creamed, we’ll lose, we’ll deserve it."

    Prophecy fulfilled.

  20. McCarthy is in danger of getting boot out because some Republicans didn't like his decision.

  21. You don't need to be a congressperson to be Speaker of the House. You need to be nominated by and voted into the position by members of congress but you don't need to be a member yourself. If Matt Gaetz nominates Donald Trump and he gets enough votes, Trump could be Speaker of the House. It's highly unlikely but it would be legal.

  22. It is the nature of evil to devour itself…

  23. This show how congress is broken.

  24. It appears to the outside world in order to be elected to the GOP you must have an IQ the size of a shoe with an equal level of integrity😅

  25. Ask Kevin what his favorite number is 1-16 ?

  26. Winnie the Poo doesn’t know what to do, got a honey jar stuck on his nose…

  27. America no longer speaks with a global moral voice. Now Americans likes drama with actors, comics and attention grabbers. Theatre of the sublime.
